____/10 Biome Descriptions (5 points per biome)
____/10 Biome Descriptions (5 points per biome)

Detailed description and a representative picture
____/ 10 Who Lives Here? (5 points per biome)

list 15 or more organisms from a variety of kingdoms
____/ 20 Food Chains (10 points per food chain)


Draw a food chain that occurs in each of your biomes
For each food chain label the following: producers, primary
consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers,
herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, and trophic level
____/20 Food Webs (10 points per food web)

Construct a food web using the food chain from above
____/20 Ecosystems (10 points per biome)

Using organisms from your food webs, give examples of the
following: a symbiotic relationship, predator-prey relationship,
limiting factors, density dependent and independent factors
that may affect the survival of organisms
____/20 Ecological Pyramid (10 points per pyramid)



construct an ecological pyramid using 9 organisms
label the correct trophic level
assume the lowest level has 100,000 units of energy, label the
units of energy that will be transferred up the remaining levels
of the pyramid
